I would love to see a methodology. Population is a factor, as is the level of crime. It should not be based on historic numbers in a station. The report states that between 2011 and 2020 the number of drugs offences doubled. This means gardaí on the ground have to do double the work and double the processing but they do not have double the numbers.
